Dated Feb 24th..
From Harry Manx: …’Beloved friends, with a heavy heart I want to tell you all that this morning at Chicago Ohara airport, while I was on my way to retrieving my luggage, someone stole my beloved Mohan Veena. Security cameras showed a man pick it up and walk out. I’ve had that Veena more than 20 years. There’s hardly been a day that I haven’t played it. I feel as though I’ve lost a good friend. I need everyone’s help to find it. If you know someone in Chicago, tell them about it. Maybe it will surface on Craigs list or E-bay. Maybe in a music store or Pawn shop. There’s no missing it. The Veena is in a Black Fibreglass Case with lots of stickers. And the Veena has 20 Strings, 2 layers of strings running parallel. It has tuning heads right down the neck. No other instrument looks like this. I’m grateful for any help’…. Thanks Harry
…’This the case that holds Harrys’ Veena. It’s big like a jumbo sized guitar. The material inside is red velvet. There are some Air Canada fragile stickers on it. Plus one from the ABC in Australia. And one sticker (shown) from the band “Le Vent Du Nord”. The handle is leather with a piece of plastic emerging from it. One tuning peg that is gold while the other 19 are black’… .
Please if you see this Mohan Veena, do not approach any person with it, contact local police.
